Developing the Next Generation of Elementary Science Teachers
By Tammy D. Lee and Bonnie Glass
This article describes how science educators at a large southeastern university developed specialized science training for elementary preservice teachers (EPSTs) by creating a combination of discipline-specific science content courses (physical, life, and Earth science) and methods courses (formal and informal) known as an elementary science concentration (ESC).
